Today Nintendo unleashed a load of shiny new 3DS trailers in their Nintendo Direct presentation.

The game that most caught my eye was Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir, which is the newest addition to the Fatal Frame series of games. It also has the distinction of being one of the only few horror titles soon to be available on the 3DS platform (in the US, at least).

Spirit Camera: The Cursed Memoir introduces a mysterious girl named Maya who has been hiding in the shadows of an old house. Players must help Maya break free from a terrifying curse by aiding her escape from the clutches of a malevolent woman in black. By using the Nintendo 3DS system’s built-in camera, players can view Maya in their own surroundings as the game’s eerie events unfold.

I’m thrilled to see more upcoming horror titles for 3DS, and frankly, it’s about time. The DS platform sorely lacks horror titles, but the few that exist are exceptionally good games. I should really do a blog post about that…
